Composition and vertical distribution of agricultural soil Macrofauna community after an extreme high temperature event in the summer of 2022

Ecological Indicators, 2023
Extreme high temperature (EHT) events are becoming more frequent and prolonged due to global climate change. Predicting the effects of EHT events on agricultural soil fauna remains a major challenge.

Parallel duplication and loss of aquaporin‐coding genes during the “out of the sea” transition as potential key drivers of animal terrestrialization

Molecular Ecology, Volume 32, Issue 8, Page 2022-2040, April 2023., 2023
Abstract One of the most important physiological challenges animals had to overcome during terrestrialization (i.e., the transition from sea to land) was water loss, which alters their osmotic and hydric homeostasis. Aquaporins are a superfamily of membrane water transporters heavily involved in osmoregulatory processes.

First record of terrestrial Enchytraeidae (Annelida: Clitellata) in Versailles palace's park, France [PDF]

, 2017
France can be qualified as terra incognita regarding terrestrial enchytraeids because very little data has been recorded so far in this country. In spring and autumn 2016, enchytraeid communities were investigated in a loamy soil in a meadow located in ...

Microplastics in agroecosystems: A review of effects on soil biota and key soil functions

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, Volume 186, Issue 1, Page 5-22, February 2023., 2023
Microplastic impacts on agroecosystem soil. Abstract Contamination of soils in agroecosystems with microplastics (MPs) is of increasing concern. The contamination of the environment/farmland soils with MPs (1 µm to 5 mm sized particles) and nanoplastics (NPs; <1 µm sized particles) is causing numerous effects on ecological soil functions and human ...

Population dynamics of free-swimming Annelida in four Dutch wastewater treatment plants in relation to process characteristics [PDF]

, 2008
Free-swimming Annelida occasionally occur in very high densities in WWTPs (WasteWater Treatment Plants) and are nowadays applied for waste sludge reduction, but their growth is uncontrollable.
